CAIRO, ILLINOIS.
UUNTAIH ASVEHTOKE.
In 1851 1 made a tour with a party of
friends through the picturesque ami
beautiful country of Switzerland. Wo
loft Geneva by boat, and proceeded to
Villeneuve, situntoiUttlie ot her extrem
ity of tho Lake, where wo took carria
ges to Martigny.
Arrived here, wo stayed all night,
and early tho next morning mounted
our mules, and, having procured guides,
started to Chaniouni. About noon wo
arrived at tho celebrated pass of Teto
Noire, where we uto our dinner, and
oneo ruoro stin ted for our destination.
Tho pass of the Teto Noire is one of tho
most remarkable in tho world. High,
precipitous mountainH.Vwercd with firs,
arise on either hand, revealing a deep,
dark chasm, into whoso doptlm it is im
possible for a traveler to gaze without
turning dizzy. At iu bottom wends
along over rocks and boulders, a little
stream of water, caused by tho drip
pings from tho sides of the mountain,
anu in the wet season, when swollen by
rains, it assumes tho proportions of a
gigantic torrent, as it iianrcs along in
I
entiling swiftness anil is lost in mo val
ley bolow,
Tho road at tins point is out a mero
Lridlo-path, over which it is impossible
for wheeled vehicles to pass, ami is
hewn in tho solid rock on the mountain
side. At one point a projecting rock
mado it impossible to wind tho road
around it, so it was cut through, ami for
a short distance tho traveler linds him
self in a narrow tunnel, tho sides of
which he can touch as he rides along on
his sure-footed mule;
The sun never shines in the rnvino,
nor dries with its warm rays tho rank
wet sides of tho dolile. From tho Teto
Noire it was a gradual descent until we
reached the valley at tho head of which
stands Mont Blanc, and whero stands
the pretty little villago of Chaniouni.
In passing along 1 noticed glaciers
(aimilles they are culled) in several
places, with verdure apparently grow
ing at their bases, and from tho tops of
which the sunlight was reflected in a
thousand different hues.
Leaving the Mer de Olnoo on our left,
and the KhiL'cro on our riirht, aflersomo
trouble in picking our way across tho
path of a huge avalanche which had
a few days before come rolling down
the mountain's side, we arrived shortly
after sunset at the village, and estab
lished ourselves for sometime in com
fortable quarters at the very good hotel
which the town afforded. It was from
these headquarters we were wont to
Bally on our expeditions to tho many
objects of interest in tho vicinity, some
times returning the saino day, but fro
nnent!y making our trip of several day's
duration.
One morning, shortly after our arriv
al, Madame B., one of our party, and
myself started alone to visit Mer do
Giaec, some fifteen miles distant. Pass
ing several parlies of excursionists, wo
had accomplished nearly half the dis
tance when wc stopped at tho door of a
pretty littlo vine-clad cottage for a drink
of the cool water which was gurgling
along in a little stream near by.
A stout, hardy-looking man of about
60 was engaged' in planting flowers in a
neat littlo garden, and in answer to our
request for a drink of tho sparkling
water, entered the cottage, and re
turned bearing a pitcher of it, with
which we allayed our thirst.
While thus engaged, I noticed that
bo kept eyeing my companion closely,
and as we wero about moving off, ho
said:
"Are you not Madame B.. who twenty
years ago visited this Ch.mumnt. ami
had fervour guide l'ierre Hlaneot?"
"Yes," replied my companiou. "I
am she, and in you I recognize my old
faithful 1'ierre, the preserver of my
life."
"Ah, niadame," said ho, seizing her
liand and holding it between his rough
palms, while tears flowed down his
checks, "I have longed for years that
this time might come, when I should bo
able to thank my benefactress for tho
blessings sho has heaped upon me.
Come hero, Mario," cried he to a
matronly-looking woman who stood in
the door of tho cottage, "coma here and
kiss our benefactress hand. She is tho
good angel who has been the causo of
all our comforts, and for whoso safety
wo have prayed for twenty years."
"Stop, 1'ierre," said madamo, em
barrassed, but not displeased at his cx
of rrratitude: "vou liuist recol-
lect that it is I, not you, who am tho
obliged party.. loyotU owe my nio,

warmt h, "Monsieur's gift enabled me to
buy this little place, and to leave tho
my dear Marie, whom before that I
could not wed, as I had no homo for
her."
"Well, Pierre," said Madamo B., "if
you will continue to remain iu error, I
ennnot heir. it. and I reioicu that tho
generosity of my husband enables you
to enjoy so much pleasure from which the
nerilous and uncertain life of a moun

a Mend, who was about returning to
rails, engageu nerre niiiuuui, u our
guide, aud a well-informed one he
proved to bo. Not onlv did ho know
all the places of interest in tho neigh
borhood, and take delight in pointing
out the best views iu tho lovely hind
scape, but his strength was such thai
be would lift me in and out of the
saddle and help me over tho dangerous
places, as though I were un iutunt in
his brawny arms.
"One day we made tho trip we are
making to-day, when un accident befell
me, which resulted quite seriously.
"Aftor walking a good distance on
tho Mer de (ilaee, we stariod to return
to tho house, ami were obliged to cross
several hugo blocks of ice. l'ierre was iu
front with a hatchet, cutting littlo steps
for us to descend by, w hen, in sumo un
accountable manner, 1 slipped and
strained my ankle severely. Tho pain
was intense, so that I coiiid not walk,
and was obliged to bo carried back to
Cliamouni.
"For several weeks I kept my room,
but at last, feeling much better, wo
Marled on nn excursion to an old saw
mill, from which an exceedingly lino
view was to bo obtained."
"Unablo to mount a mule, my bus
band procured for mo one of those
curious vehicles we, met to-day, called a
'char a banc' You notice how com
fortably they are made for rough roads,
being nothing more than along spring
board extended from the forward and
hind wheels, on which is fastened a seat, .
in which tho passenger sits sideways.
"Well, l'ierre carried me down and
seated mo in the 'char a banc,' mounted
a kind of a box there is in front, and
we started off. My liii.-lminl, armed
with a stout Alpine stall', walked at
our side for a while, when, saying that
he knew of a short cut over the moun
tain, lie left us promising to arrive tit
tho old mill botoio us, and hnvo our
lunch in readiness.
"Alas, I littlo .dreamed of tho
danger 1 would be placed in, or tho
wonderful escape from death I should
experience before we again met.
"After following for several miles tho
old bed of a stream in the valley, wo
entered a dark gorge, and commenced
tho ascent. The scenery was most pic
turesque. On either side were heavy
misses of line trees, and the group ap
peared carpeted with beautiful moun
tain flowers, so numerous in this
district. I have forgotten tho name
of the mountain we were ascending, but
I recollect tho lovelinos of the scene.
At last we crossed a foaming, angry
stream, and commenced following it to
its sources, for it was on this stream that
tho mill wa9 situated.
"Tho road was built on the top of a
elifV overhnno-in'r the water, and so nar
row that it was impossible for two
wheeled vehicles to pass. At intervals
a place was excavated in the bank forpar
ties L'oinff un to wait until parties de
scending had passed by.

and Pierre had just pointed mo out its
site, whon he utlereii an exclamation of
surpriso and, jumping from tho box,
ran a few vards iu front. Looking in
tho direction ho had taken, I saw a sight
which curdled tho blood in my veins,
and appeared to freeze my heart.

"But all at once a ray of hope enter

Thero ho stood, lirmlv braced, In tho
center of the road, a few rods in front
of me, watching, with tho most intenso
earnestness, every motion of the en-

and distended nostrils, apparently un

was tearing down upon him with an al

Stories About Animals.
A singulur encounter between a dog
and a donkey occurred rocently in
Blackpool, England, llio dog rushed
at the donkey as he was standing in h
held, and fastened on Ids nose. 1 lie
.Im.iI i.v ..luiok him oil', bit hbn about
I1JMIM J - " -
tlie head and shoulders, und tossed him
wildly about, i he dog again seized
the donkey, and tho combatants could
not be separated, After the light had
lasted half an hour, tho owner decided
to have the dog shot, as it had by that
time fastened Willi a firm hold on the
donkey's nose. A gun was procured,
but so savage was the light that it was
difficult to shoot one animal without
killing the other also. At last aim was
taken? a bullet was put into tho dogs
bead, ami it dropped to tho ground.
When tho smoko cleared away the dog
was dead, but the infuriated donkey
bad returned to the charge, kicking,
biting and tramping on tho dog. It
was with great difficulty the dotikey
was at last driven off.
Mr. Farler, tho Colonial Secretary of
the Honduras, says tho London Tvtt'
(rnii, while exploring the interior of
tho colony, was overtaken by a drove
of peccaries, and was compelled to'
scramble up a tree, dropping his rifle
in the performance. Tho whole pack
gathered around his porch, grunting
and sharpening their tusks. "Now the
peccary is not only ferocious but,
patient, and rather than let an object
of its anger escape will wait about for
days, so that the Secretary had before
him only two courses cither to remain
w here wo was until he dropped down
among the swino from sheer exhaus
tion and hunger, or else to commit sui
cide at oneo by coming down to bo
eaten there and'then. Whilo ho was iu
this dilemma, however, what should
como alongand looking out for sup
per, too hut a jaguar. Never was
beast of prey so opportune, for tho
jaguar has a particular fondness for
wild pork and tho peccaries know it,
for no sooner did they seo the great
ruddy head thrust out through tho
bushes than they bolted hellerskeltcr,
forgolting, in their anxiety to save
their own bacon, the meal they them
selves were leaving up tho tree. Tho
jaguar was oil' after the swine with
ad"minible promptitude, and tho Secre
tary, finding the coast dear, camo
down, reflecting, as ho walked toward
the camp, upon the admirable arrang
ments of nature, which, having made
peccaries to cat Colonial Secretaries,
provided also jaguars to eat peccaries.
A remarkable story of a dog that
died of a broken heart is told by Mr.
Martin, of Atlanta. l.i. W. H. H:irvi"l,
the father-in-law of Dr. Martin, who
died recently at a ripo old age, was tho
owner of a very line bulldog, by name
I'onto. "For months before his death,"
says Dr. Martin, "lliis dog was his con
stant comiKiiiion. There was somc-
tliiiin-ulniimt hiiitmn in t lie devotion of
the (Tog to his master, and, as a natural
consequence, the master was particular
ly fond of his dog. The daily move
ments of the old gentleman for a long
lime before his last sickness were as
regular us iho.se of a clock, and lonto
followed him as surely as his very
shadow. When the old man died
I'onto took his place by the coflm, and
did not budje utni'i it was taken from
the room. Then he got up and follow
ed it closely In the hearse, and followed
the hearse to the grave. Tonto came
back to the house a changed dog.
Kverv night he lay upon his rug in tho
porch, and moaned piteously all night
h.nrr KvelV ihlV foUllli 111 ill lliakillir
thoiouiids jilht. as he used to do before
tho old man died. I templed him with
tho choicest meat, but he refused to eat.
I offered him tho warmest milk; he
would not drink, lie went about, with
his head down, the very picture of sor
row, lie dwindled away aimosi io u.
skeleton. Ono day, about hvo weeks
after tho old man died, I'onto came
l,-iirriti(r his wenk nnd loall bodv down
the street. When ho got to the fence,
there ho stopped and sank upon the
ground. 1 ran to him, and, lifting him
in my arms, carried him into the yard,
for ho was dead!"
Ther are fourteen judges of English
county courts whose united ages amount
to 1,005 years, with an average of 7
years. Of those, live wero appointed
'judges in 117, on the passing of the
first county court act; they will, there
fore, complete thirty-four years' service
this year more than twice tho time re
quired for a judgo of the high court to
earn his retirement. One of tlieso
judges was appointed in 1819. These
venerable gentlemen can only receive a
pension on 'boing "afflicted with some
permanent infirmity disabling them
lrom the duo execution of their otliee."
How to Buy a Horse.
And old horseman speaking of this
subject says: If you want to buy a
horse, don t believe your own brother.
Take no man's word for it. Your eyo
is your market. Don't buy a horse in
harness. Unhitch him and take every
thing off but tho halter, and load him
around. If ho has a corn, or is stiff, or
has any other failing, you can see it.
Let him go by himself a littlo ways,
and if ho slaves right into anything,
you may know he's stone blind. No
matter now cleat and bright his eyes
are, ho can't seo any nioro than a bat.
Back him up, too. 'Some horses show
their weakness or tricks that way when
they don't in any other.
. But bo as smart as you can, and you'll
get caught sometimes. Even an expert
gets stuck. A horse may look ever so
nice, and go a mile a minute, and yet
havo fils for instaneo. There isn't a
live man could tell it till something
happens. Or ho may havo a weak back.
Give him tho whip and off he goes for a
milo or two; then, all of a sudden, ho
sits down on tho road. Aftor a rest ho
gets up and starts again, but he soon
sits down for good, aud nothing but a
derrick could raise him.
Do you know what a dummy is?
You don't? Well, I'll toll 'you. He's
a horse that don't know anything. His
brain has gotio wrong. A dark stall
and over-feoding has ruined his diges
tion, and that has affected his brain.
Drive him out a ways, and pretty soon
lie will jerk his head around and pull
right straight on ono lino. You can't
hold him; it's no use to try. Tho first
you know ho has dumped you in a ditch
or smashed you up against a lamp post.
Tie him in a stable, nnd ho'H back up
till ho breaks every halter you put on
him, Stretch a rope across the end of
tho stall so ho can't back out, and he'll
climb up the wall. ,
